  • The Study of Old Documents of Hokkaido and Kuril Ainu
    NINJAL International Symposium 2018 Approaches to Endangered Languages in Japan and Northeast Asia, August 6-8 The study of old documents of Hokkaido and Kuril Ainu: Promise and Challenges Tomomi Sato (Hokkaido U) & Anna Bugaeva (TUS/NINJAL) [email protected] [email protected]) Introduction: Ainu • AINU (isolate, North Japan, moribund) • Is the only non-Japonic lang. of Japan. • Major dialect groups : Hokkaido (moribund), Sakhalin (extinct since 1993), Kuril (extinct since the end of XIX). • Was also spoken in Tōhoku till mid XVIII. • Hokkaido Ainu dialects: Southwestern (well documented) Northeastern (less documented) • Is not used in daily conversation since the 1950s. • Ethnical Ainu: 100,000. 2 Fig. 2 Major language families in Northeast Asia （excluding Sinitic） Amuric Mongolic Tungusic Ainuic Koreanic Japonic • Ainu shares only few features with Northeast Asian languages. • Ainu is typologically “more like a morphologically reduced version of a North American language.” (Johanna Nichols p.c.). • This is due to the strongly head-marking character of Ainu (Bugaeva, to appear). Why is it important to study Ainu? • Ainu culture is widely regarded as a direct descendant of the Jōmon culture which was spread in the Japanese archipelago in the Prehistoric time from about 14,000 BC. • Ainu is the only surviving Jōmon language; there had been other Jōmon lgs too: about 300 lgs (Janhunen 2002), cf. 10 lgs (Whitman, p.c.) . • Ainu is likely to be much more typical of what languages were like in Northeast Asia several millennia ago than the picture we would get from Chinese, Japanese or Korean. • Focusing on Ainu can help us understand a period of northeast Asian history when political, cultural and linguistic units were very different to what they have been since the rise of the great historically-attested states of East Asia.

  • A Comparative Analysis of the Simplification of Chinese Characters in Japan and China
    CONTRASTING APPROACHES TO CHINESE CHARACTER REFORM: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE SIMPLIFICATION OF CHINESE CHARACTERS IN JAPAN AND CHINA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN ASIAN STUDIES AUGUST 2012 By Kei Imafuku Thesis Committee: Alexander Vovin, Chairperson Robert Huey Dina Rudolph Yoshimi ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express deep gratitude to Alexander Vovin, Robert Huey, and Dina R. Yoshimi for their Japanese and Chinese expertise and kind encouragement throughout the writing of this thesis. Their guidance, as well as the support of the Center for Japanese Studies, School of Pacific and Asian Studies, and the East-West Center, has been invaluable. i ABSTRACT Due to the complexity and number of Chinese characters used in Chinese and Japanese, some characters were the target of simplification reforms. However, Japanese and Chinese simplifications frequently differed, resulting in the existence of multiple forms of the same character being used in different places. This study investigates the differences between the Japanese and Chinese simplifications and the effects of the simplification techniques implemented by each side. The more conservative Japanese simplifications were achieved by instating simpler historical character variants while the more radical Chinese simplifications were achieved primarily through the use of whole cursive script forms and phonetic simplification techniques. These techniques, however, have been criticized for their detrimental effects on character recognition, semantic and phonetic clarity, and consistency – issues less present with the Japanese approach. By comparing the Japanese and Chinese simplification techniques, this study seeks to determine the characteristics of more effective, less controversial Chinese character simplifications.

  • DBT and Japanese Braille
    AUSTRALIAN BRAILLE AUTHORITY A subcommittee of the Round Table on Information Access for People with Print Disabilities Inc. www.brailleaustralia.org email: [email protected] Japanese braille and UEB Introduction Japanese is widely studied in Australian schools and this document has been written to assist those who are asked to transcribe Japanese into braille in that context. The Japanese braille code has many rules and these have been simplified for the education sector. Japanese braille has a separate code to that of languages based on the Roman alphabet and code switching may be required to distinguish between Japanese and UEB or text in a Roman script. Transcription for higher education or for a native speaker requires a greater knowledge of the rules surrounding the Japanese braille code than that given in this document. Ideally access to both a fluent Japanese reader and someone who understands all the rules for Japanese braille is required. The website for the Braille Authority of Japan is: http://www.braille.jp/en/. I would like to acknowledge the invaluable advice and input of Yuko Kamada from Braille & Large Print Services, NSW Department of Education whilst preparing this document. Kathy Riessen, Editor May 2019 Japanese print Japanese print uses three types of writing. 1. Kana. There are two sets of Kana. Hiragana and Katana, each character representing a syllable or vowel. Generally Hiragana are used for Japanese words and Katakana for words borrowed from other languages. 2. Kanji. Chinese characters—non-phonetic 3. Rōmaji. The Roman alphabet 1 ABA Japanese and UEB May 2019 Japanese braille does not distinguish between Hiragana, Katakana or Kanji.

Vance 校正者(英) Wayne Lawrence journal or Pioneering Linguistic Works in Japan publication title page range 1-24 year 2019-09 URL http://doi.org/10.15084/00002233 HASHIMOTO Pioneering Linguistic Works in Japan A Discovery in the History of Research on Japanese Kana Orthography: Ishizuka Tatsumaro’s Kanazukai oku no yamamichi HASHIMOTO Shinkichi 1 Two Aspects of Kana Orthography Research Kana orthography refers to the way of using kana [i.e., Chinese characters used to write Japanese syllables phonographically, including both the unabbreviated characters (man’yōgana), used mostly in the Nara period (710–794) and early in the Heian Period (794–1185), and the abbreviated forms (hiragana and katakana) that first appeared around 900]. When it comes to using あ to represent the sound “a” or か to represent the sound “ka,” things are clear and simple, and no doubts arise. It is only when two or more different letters correspond to the same sound, as in the case of い [i] and ゐ [wi] [both pronounced i today] or お [o] and を [wo] [both pronounced o today], that doubts arise as to which letter to use. Thus, we can say that problems of kana orthography are actually just problems of choosing which letter to use. Kana orthography problems have two aspects. On the one hand, there is the question of whether or not letters that represent the same sound (い [i] and ゐ [wi] [for i], お [o] and を [wo] [for o], etc.) should be distinguished, and if so, which letter should be used when.

  • The Formation of “New” Kana Written Horizontally
    1 2 Good morning, everyone. On behalf of the Shinsekai Type Study Group. today we would like to talk about the Japanese writing system… specifically about the kana script. Our discussion will focus on the realm of possibility. 3 Written Japanese is one of the world’s most complex languages. It’s written using a combination of three diferent systems… kanji characters, and two scripts known as hiragana and katakana. Originally, however, hiragana and katakana both derived from kanji. 4 Kanji characters originated in China, where they each have their own meaning. 5 Early on, they were imported into Japan, where the existing language was completely diferent. To express Japanese, Chinese characters had to be adapted. 6 Two new scripts were invented, based on kanji, known as “hiragana” and “katakana.” Today we will limit our discussion to hiragana… which we will refer to simply as “kana.” 7 I will start by describing how kana came about. 8 At first, in around the 7th century, kanji were used phonetically. In other words, kanji were used simply to express the sounds of Japanese – one character per sound. 9 Around the 9th or 10th century, the forms of kanji began undergoing gradual change. A new style developed – a more fluid or “cursive” style unique to Japan. This is called “sōgana.” 10 During the 10th to 11th centuries, sōgana’s forms became even more fluid and refined. The result is the writing system that came to be known as “kana.” 11 In this way, where as at first kanji were used in Japan in their original form gradually their shapes became increasingly cursive until eventually they became kana unique to Japan.

  • Color Coding Japanese Kana for Second Language Acquisition
    Color Coding Japanese Kana for Second Language Acquisition Kevin Reay Wrobetz, Kobe Gakuin University, Japan The Asian Conference on Language Learning 2019 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract In this research, the pedagogical effects of endowing Japanese Hiragana with alphabetical properties by phonetically mapping the Kana syllabary to their respective vowel phonemes with a color code as well as mapping diacritical marks color coded to each character’s respective consonant group are studied. This phonetic color coding system mapped to Japanese Kana was tested on a group of native English speakers with no prior knowledge of Japanese, and the results of a series of six tests examining Kana acquisition, pronunciation accuracy, and vocabulary retention were weighed against the results of a control group who received instruction without said color coding system. This phonetic color coding system proves to be far superior to the instructional methods used without the system in three distinct categories. First, the phonetic color coding system, once learned, allows the learner to forego all romanization and instead use only the Kana characters during study thus increasing the speed of Kana acquisition. Second, by not using romanizations to guide pronunciation, the learner is unaffected by the phonetic rules governing the English Latin alphabet thus improving the accuracy of pronunciation. Third, mapping a phonetic color code to a writing system arguably increases the retention rate of vocabulary. The implementation of this phonetic color coding system elicited striking improvements in the abovementioned categories throughout all six tests carried out in this study. Keywords: Japanese as a Foreign Language, Second Language Acquisition, Phonology, Phonetic Color Coding, L2 Vocabulary Acquisition iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org Introduction Japanese is considered to be one of the most difficult languages for native English speakers to acquire proficiency in.

In the introductory chapter, the meanings and scope of the term kana-sukai are considered, as also the question of how kana-zukai first arose. Chapter Two consists of a description of kana usage Before Keichu, in order to put the historical kana usage of Keichu into perspective. In Chapter Three a brief introduction to ICeichu and his works is given, together with a consideration of the significance of his kana usage studies within his work as a whole*r£ Chapter Four sets out assumptions concerning the sound-system of the language of KeichU as a preliminary to examination of his Icana usage writings.

  • Automated Transcription for Pre-Modern Japanese Kuzushiji Documents by Random Lines Erasure and Curriculum Learning
    Automated Transcription for Pre-Modern Japanese Kuzushiji Documents by Random Lines Erasure and Curriculum Learning Anh Duc Le1 1 Center for Open Data in The Humanities, Tokyo, Japan [email protected] Abstract. Recognizing the full-page of Japanese historical documents is a chal- lenging problem due to the complex layout/background and difficulty of writing styles, such as cursive and connected characters. Most of the previous methods divided the recognition process into character segmentation and recognition. However, those methods provide only character bounding boxes and classes without text transcription. In this paper, we enlarge our previous human- inspired recognition system from multiple lines to the full-page of Kuzushiji documents. The human-inspired recognition system simulates human eye movement during the reading process. For the lack of training data, we propose a random text line erasure approach that randomly erases text lines and distorts documents. For the convergence problem of the recognition system for full- page documents, we employ curriculum learning that trains the recognition sys- tem step by step from the easy level (several text lines of documents) to the dif- ficult level (full-page documents). We tested the step training approach and random text line erasure approach on the dataset of the Kuzushiji recognition competition on Kaggle. The results of the experiments demonstrate the effec- tiveness of our proposed approaches. These results are competitive with other participants of the Kuzushiji recognition competition. Keywords: Kuzushiji recognition, full-page document recognition, random text line erasure approach. 1 Introduction Japan had been using Kuzushiji or cursive writing style shortly after Chinese charac- ters got into the country in the 8th century.
